Medistim

For the first time, an efficient and effective method has been developed for on-surgical
face-lifting and body contouring. The Diamond Medistim provides a dynamic wavelength
device that can be used to tone muscles anywhere on the body, as well as decrease and
mobilize fat in certain areas. This technique is based on the response of muscles to electric
stimulation.

Electric stimulation has been used for years to stimulate muscle tone. It is clear that with age,
muscle weakness and decreased tone are prevalent. Although one may exercise facial
muscles, it is very difficult to do so when there are 108 muscles in the face. With proper pad
placement, the muscles of the face can be stimulated to increase their size and tone. This will
fill in the gaps that cause wrinkles from poor muscle tone. Equally important is the ability of
the Medistim to tone and tighten the skin over the muscles. The program usually requires
12-24 treatments. These can be done 2-3 times per week. As with any muscle exercise,
maintenance is required. Medistim requires maintenance of once a month. This procedure
can replace face-lifts in many instances. This devise can even be used before or after facelifts
where the muscles are not toned and have lost their bulk. Surgical facelifts do not address
the muscle tone in most cases.

The Medistim has been used to mobilize fat under the chin as well as on the hips, thighs and
buttock. The contouring provided by one of the wavelengths can also be used to treat
cellulite on the legs. We can provide a 10 minute treatment that will clearly show you the
ability of this technique to elevate the drooping eyes and sagging muscles.
